"The Great Debaters"

Luckily they weren't Masters students or the title of this film would be causing more of a fuss. Denzel Washington stars as Professor Melvin Tolson, a real-life historic figure who used unconventional teaching methods to shape a debate team at a small African American university. The story is about how those methods were so successful that these students went on to challenge Harvard University. There is a 2-disc collector's edition available today as well. Disc one contains deleted scenes, two music videos, trailers and a featurette on the historical events that the film is based on. Disc two contains multiple featurettes, including one on Forest Whitaker's role, the lead actors debate camp where they learned debate tactics, and a on the young actors themselves.

"Indiana Jones"

If there's only one good thing about the upcoming new Indiana Jones, this is it. All of the original movies are out on glorious digital surround sound DVD. Both wide and full screen versions are available. While the DVD features don't include storyboards or deleted scenes, a fourth bonus DVD is included that has a new documentary on the making of the films. Hey, it's Indiana Jones on DVD, stop complaining.

"Mad Money"

A group of completely different stereotypical women get together and rob a bank. If it weren't for the supporting cast this film wouldn't be worth wasting in your Netflix queue, check out our full review - Mad Money gets deposited into theaters.

"Untraceable"

Diane Lane and Colin Hanks team up to trace an untraceable killer who is using the power of viral marketing on the Internet to kill people. The premise must have sounded brilliant to the big players, but the film delivered an untraceable amount of money in the box office. Non-existent is untraceable right?
